Nice job on your video. I am a foreigner, that has been living all over Bucharest from Sector 6 to now staying in Sector 3. Every time I take a ride share, the question I hear most, after the one where are you from, is why live in Romania. You made a great job at explaining why. Your video is the explanation, why I stay in this city. You should do more videos about your country. Show it's uplifting side, I'm always told that it is not a good country. I'm trying to stay polite in the comments, but the words I hear from Romanians are not that polite about Romania. It's near the end of October now and it starts to get a little chill. Still not going to move. Any time you want to start a little conversation, I'll be available. Your country has been good to me and to friends I worked with. Keep hanging on, to grow your channel. I did subscribe...

Thank you so much! 😊 I'm really glad you enjoyed the video, and I definitely plan to make more about Romania in the future. I know what you're talking about. Unfortunately, it's a pretty divided country in terms of mindset. The 90s were tough on post-communist Romania, with a lot of corruption. I think during that time, many people looked up to Western countries, which had stronger economies and a higher quality of life, leading to resentment towards their own country, at least from a political point of view. The grass was greener, foreigners were 'cool,' and we didn’t have the best 'reputation'. Things have changed now, in my opinion... both here and in those countries, but unfortunately, some people never moved past that mindset and don't see how things have evolved. I'm really happy to hear that Romania has been good to you and your friends! 😊🌍

Lovely tour of your home city, I was not aware of the beauty of the architecture, the carved stone work was so intricate and ornate. Loved it. Especially enjoy a walking tour, what a lovely way to spend a day or two, thank you for showing us how easy it is. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

Great video I’ve been to Bucharest a couple of times for weekend not seen all the attractions yet, so you have given me an insight into things to do in September I’ll be there. I’m staying at the Epoque hotel looking forward to once again enjoying Romania. I live on the south coast of England where it is very beautiful, but love Romania I feel at home there. Thank you.

Thank you! 😊 I'm glad the video gave you some ideas for your next trip. The south coast of England sounds lovely! I lived in London for four years but often found myself heading north, so I never got the chance to visit. I hope you enjoy exploring more of Bucharest in September! 🍁🏙

Mai mult din curiozitate... Mereu am fost pasionata de calatorii si, in acelasi timp, mi-am si dorit sa locuiesc in mai multe locuri, pentru experienta in sine. Recunosc ca inainte sa ma mut din Romania am crezut mereu ca 'the grass was greener' si am fost atrasa de societatea vestica, dar mi-am dat seama ca sunt plusuri si minusuri peste tot. Experienta mea m-a facut sa apreciez mai mult anumite aspecte legate de Romania. 😊

Alo, dear Olive 😃🫒, this was really interesting for me, as I know so little about Eastern European countries... I've seen your country-side clips (like of the Via Transilvanica or the Raven's Nest), but Bucharest brings home much more the history, and the social and political identity of your homeland, and it was your home town too... were you born there as well? If so: is your home of childhood still there?... 👶 ...there are of course still omnipresent the footprints of the Ceaucescu era, which ended just mere 35 years ago... it made me sad to hear, how he 'erased' the old town centre to build that staggering parliament building... I wonder how it looked like before... maybe a bit like been shown in the village museum close to the end of the video? Some of those old buildings remind me even a bit of Japanese and Nepalese temples... reminders of ancient travel & trading routes probably, like the Silk Road... The walk through the central alleys and parks of the city was indeed relaxed and spacious... outstanding that enormous book store, with the beautiful light installations - I would definitely gravitate to that one, when visiting ... 🏠 Because of the focus on the capital, I started to ponder on questions about what today's generation might think, reflect, strive for... what are main subjects of discussion in Bucharest, at the university, and also at the restaurants, pubs and squares? What do the young Romanians think and want? Is there a fear of totalitarianism rising again, with the war in the north? ...there are direct borders to the Ukraine... ☮ That could maybe be another route for you to open conversations on your channel... interviewing young people / students about what they think and wish for the future...🎤 Thanks again, Olive - I love your videos, as you know... and I was also very aware of your musical choices, switches and turns - very well choreographed... 🎶 keep on raving, travelling, and... maybe becoming a bit of an ambassador of Romania 😎💖🌄 Oh - and I'm envisioning the transition beyond the magical 1.000!!!

Haha, Ceausescu's favourite word! 😄🏛 I’m glad to hear you found the information interesting! I must admit, I don’t know much about other Eastern European countries either, since I’ve always chosen to travel to more popular destinations instead, but I’m hoping to visit them in the near future. 🌍✈ Yes, I was born in Bucharest, and I still have my childhood home. 😊 Regarding Ceausescu’s era being quite recent, it’s a bit surreal to think about how my parents' generation lived their first 30-40 years under communism without knowing anything else. About the city before the Palace of the Parliament, the area had a big market and looked more like the old center now. The colorful houses at the Village Museum are typical of the countryside in other areas of Romania. 🌳🏡 As for the younger generations, millennials were the first to have access to the 'outside world', especially with the rise of the internet. Some had access, while others didn’t, depending on where they lived and their family. I think generally those growing up with internet access and American TV series tend to be more open-minded and fit in better with western societies, which is also why many have moved abroad. In contrast, those without it have been influenced by communism indirectly, by only interacting with their close environment, and therefore have a more traditional mindset. They tend to be less open to change, less self-aware, and are more reluctant or judgmental towards unconventional life choices, like traveling full-time instead of settling down, as an example. This is a personal observation and it's of course not the case for everyone. Younger generations’ interests are influenced by the era of technology, which I think is leading to more similarity between cultures. 📱💻 Currently, there isn’t any fear of rising totalitarianism, and the likelihood of war is low since Romania, unlike Ukraine, is a member of both the EU and NATO, which would involve many other countries if anything were to happen. Thank you for your suggestion about interviewing young people, it’s a great idea! However, I feel I need to grow my channel a bit more before confidently interviewing people. 😁 Thank you so much for your support! 💜🌆

@@jornspirit Oh, I was talking about "Alo." 😄 I thought you used it intentionally. In Romanian, "Alo" is used either to answer the phone or to get people's attention. It's equivalent to "hello" only in these contexts, so in all his videos, Ceausescu would say, "Alo, alo!" to get people to listen to him. In that context, it’s like saying, "Hey, silence everyone, I'm speaking!" but less formal and less respectful towards the crowd. Nobody really uses it like that, but Ceausescu did in his speeches. It's the standard phone greeting though. 😁
